Or have they just beat bad teams?

[rick50time]

legit

[LLXC]

They will definitely compete in the NL West. Usually they have slow starts and a ridiculous September but so far, they've been playing good baseball.

[romecloneout]

tulo is playing like a god

[newjerseydevils]

i hope so. i plan on taking the rockies tomm.

[Crayzee]

gotta see how they do at
sf, la,
and vs philly, cinci
mets can make little league teams look invincible

[HoulihansTX]

They are playing bad teams.

Pirates, Dodgers, Mets, and Diamondbacks. All bottom feeders.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Tulowitzki is legit.

[Ace_of_Spades]

They are playing bad teams.

Pirates, Dodgers, Mets, and Diamondbacks. All bottom feeders.

But they are beating them, thats good.

[HoulihansTX]

But they are beating them, thats good.

no doubt

[iceminers26]

yes and yes

they're legit with that offense and at the same time yes they are beating shitty teams...only time will tell

[pattymayo]

watched all the games against the Mets, they looked real good. Mets would jump out to early leads, and then the very next inning they would respond with runs, they did that in every game. I think they have a great lineup, but I think pitching will be a concern. But right now the Mets would make a Rookie ball team look good

[raiders32]

I think they are gonna be good this year.

but there doing it with suspect pitching

[SouthBayGame]

They have the best offense in NL West. Their pitching is decent but not superb, like San Fran. They obviously are looking good early, but its early and I think it will be a tight division race. They definitely won't finish with the best record in N.L. (should be Phili) like they have now.

[tunaguitar76]

yea they're legit.. for april. It's tough to think with their pitching they can do much more than win the west at best.

[jmiezie]

I think they will be quite the contender this year!

[VegasInsider]

Serious contenders. When you have CGonz, Tulo and Helton clogging up the middle of the lineup...you gotta be considered a contender.

[face]

the mets announcers (keith hernandez + ron darling) were saying tulo is badass because there is no place to pitch to him where he can't hit it, so pitchers are confused. he has no hole in his strike zone. he hit 10 out of 15 times in the mets series, with 4 home runs. pretty good.

[dabomguy11]

The reason I think their legit is because their bullpen is solid, and while the starting pitchers aren't great, they do a decent job. Also, they'll be getting Ubaldo back eventually, and while he won't have a sub-2.00 ERA like last year, a high 2.00-low 3.00 ERA will not surprise me.

Hope they don't start walking him

[jagaf22]

Their offense is good enough to make them a contender. The question is do they have enough starting pitching.

[rymille83]

Troy and Car-go are very legit

[ICE-BLOOD]

rockies pitching has been surprisingly real good

[dannyd66]

------but I agree with a fellow poster...."it's only April."

They will have slumps....but the offense should always be there thanks to talent and, in part, Coors field.

[WhiteEagle]

Rockies are pretty good team

[stevenash]

Not even two full years into his pro career, Car-Go has proven himself to be a superstar.
Tulo is now the games elite SS, Jeter is old, Han-Ram has slipped some, Reyes is all style, no substance, and Jimmy Rollins is a bit overrated.
Tod Helton thinks he's 28 years old still.
Seth Smith is a nice little versatile player, so is Fowler, Herrera is a nice role player.

Ianetta needs to hit, so does Ian Stewart, the two of them are death at the plate.

Chacin is a solid starter.
DeLarosa has proven he can win 16 games in the bigs already.
Rogers is the 'x' factor, unproven, untested, but undefeated so far.

Huston Street makes you go to the whiskey bottle though when he enters, you don't know what he's going to do.
He can't be gagging on games if the Rox are going to go deep in the playoffs this year.
Successful teams have successful closers, Wilson in SF, Mo in NYC.

Rox are 7-1 on the road, that's a very good thing.

Right now, they are the third best NL team behind Philly and Cincy

[cadillac pete]

With an offense like that they are never out of a game....But like many teams

[J-Ro11]

The Mets are terrible.

I do give Colo respect for winning two games in an 8-hour time frame.

[HoulihansTX]

Huston Street makes you go to the whiskey bottle though when he enters

He is horrible. I dont understand what makes him a good closer.

[zoso11871]

I would say they're legit and have a decent shot of winning the division.

[scottie2005]

Hard to tell cause the Mets suck so bad

[face]

i like that most homerun prop man, thanks for sharing. tulo in a hitters park, there's no telling just how good troy is yet, he might be a megastar for all we know.

I think you have some pretty good posts, just wanted to say I Agree.

[sheffield77]

tulo by far best ss in the game
